Our Lost & Found is bursting at the seams! If your student is missing a jacket, water bottle, lunchbox, or any other personal item, there's a good chance it's waiting to be reunited with them!
Please remind your child to stop by the Lost & Found this week to check for anything they may have misplaced. We'll be donating unclaimed items soon, so now is the time to take a look!
Thank you for your help in keeping our school tidy and our belongings where they belong!

2nd Grade Classes had a great time visiting Staerkel Planetarium today! After learning about our solar system, students enjoyed lunch at Parkland College with their friends! The weather was not on our side today for the park, but we made the best of it and have some great memories from our day!
Yesterday's 5th grade science fair was a huge success! 🎉 It was amazing to see all the hard work, creativity, and enthusiasm from students. Everyone enjoyed learning about the unique projects and experiments. A big thank you to all the students for their dedication!
Mr. Herrin’s class has spent the past few weeks exploring the life cycle of chickens and learning all about embryo development. We studied how embryos grow, how eggs are fertilized, and even discovered some fun facts—did you know there are over 1,600 chicken breeds around the world? The students were thrilled to find out they’d be helping raise chicks right in the classroom! Today, we moved our newly hatched chicks out of the incubators—check out these adorable photos! 🐣
And to top off a fantastic day at the District 118 Math Challenge, our first graders got to celebrate their hard work with a special treat from McDonald’s!
